The placement of the genus Hyalopecten is currently uncertain. Habe[1] included Hyalopecten within the subfamily Camptonectinae. However, Hyalopecten lacks antimarginal microsculpture, which is a key characteristic of Camptonectinae.[2] Some authors consider Ciclopecten Seguenza, 1877 to be a senior synonym, however Ciclopecten has antimarginal microsculpture.

gollark: Shape card manual, I think.
gollark: <@441604126514741258> did you look at the RFTools quarry thing?
gollark: Apparently zinc generates more in mesas and hills if it helps at all. It might just be very far. Quarrying should help.
gollark: But you'd have to run rails that far.
